Foot health plays a key role in determining overall health and wellness. It carries you through life; if you neglect it, the whole body will pay the price. Soaking the foot every night in warm rosemary water will soothe the body. Moreover, it could help you relax after a hectic day. 
How to make rosemary water at home
Take three tablespoons of fresh or dried rosemary. Add the rosemary to boiling water and simmer for ten minutes. Turn off the flame and strain the water into a clean vessel. Mix some salt in this water. When the water cools down a bit, soak the feet for 15 – 20 minutes. Wipe the feet using a clean and dry towel. You could apply a soothing moisturiser.
